From 2023 to 2028, Germany's import of unwrought tin alloys is forecasted to decline consistently. In 2023, imports were significantly higher, but they are projected to drop by approximately 62% year-on-year from 2024 to 2028. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicates a steep average annual decrease, reflecting a significant downtrend in import volumes for this period.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential changes in global tin supply chains, which could affect prices and import needs.
- Developments in alternative materials that may substitute tin alloys, impacting demand.
- Technological advancements in recycling and efficient usage could influence import volumes.
